BlackBerry PlayBook Mini Keyboard Release Date Is March 23rd?

12.03.2012

BlackBerry Playbook’s first birthday is next month and even though its hardware specifications are decent even for new-generation tablet, the RIM tablet haven’t became as popular as the officials of the Canada-based company expected. The operating system’s user interface isn’t bad, but the lack of applications in the dedicated store played an important role in customer’s decision when it came to buying the RIM slate.

Rumor has it that the Canada-based smartphone and tablet maker is planning to introduce a Bluetooth QWERTY keyboard for their 7-inch tablet. Unofficially dubbed BlackBerry PlayBook Mini Keyboard, it might hit the market on March 23rd at a price of $120.

The BlackBerry PlayBook Mini Keyboard also comes with a multi-touch touchpad. An online store in North America have started the pre-orders session ahead of the official announcement. It would be interesting to see whether RIM will develop a new generation of the PlayBook slate, now that their tablet operating system have been reached version 2.0.
